Last September, Janek arrived at his home in Moravia and found it had burnt out. Luckily, his family was safe, but most of his property, including his photographic and informatic equipment, were totally burnt and useless. Of course, he can’t do his work as photographer without them, and the insurance didn’t cover the household damage.

Now, Janek has an idea to try to recover from this disaster: With the collaboration of the company SAAI-DIGITAL, he has launched a crowdfunding campaign in order to print a photobook containing his best shots in exceptional quality. By participating in bringing forth this book, you will also partly support the purchase of new equipment which was lost during the fire. So, click on the crowdfunding page, check which reward suits you most and help Janek to keep portraying the wonderful nature in the surreal way he does.

Janek Sedlar is a self-taught Czech photographer whose nature photos went viral last year on Bored Panda

He became a “serious” photographer in 2011, and since then, he has captured a number of forested landscapes that look like fairytales

But last September, his house was destroyed in a fire, and he lost all the equipment he needs to do his photographer work

The insurance covered the damage in the house, but not the household, so Janek found himself in a difficult position

He had an idea: launching a crowdfunding campaign to publish a photobook with his best shots

He hopes to print 250 copies with the help of the company SAAI-DIGITAL, to guarantee exceptional quality

By participating in bringing forth this book, you will also partly support the purchase of new equipment which was lost during the fire
